Specialized knowledge is one of the most valuable resources in the world. Fortunately for you, I have specialized knowledge. I know how to sell properties more quickly and for more money, and I also know how to help you with rental properties and wholesaling transactions. I know precisely where to “tap the valve” and solve any problems that could arise. This is the most important thing a real estate agent can do for you. After all, just because a buyer is interested in your house doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll be able to complete the purchase. For example, a flipper put her home on the market, and the perfect buyer came along and made a full-price offer. The flipper and the buyer signed a contract, but it ultimately had to be canceled when the buyer ran into a problem with financing. The flipper told the story to an agent. It turns out the financing problem would have been easily solved, but the flipper didn’t known how to solve it, so the sale had fallen flat. Unfortunately, the flipper had to put the home back on the market, and it took another five months to sell. The flipper had to pay an additional five months’ worth of mortgage payments, property taxes, and homeowner’s insurance premiums. In addition, she had to maintain the lawn, pay the electric bill, and take care of the property while it sat on the market. That’s a lot of money going into holding costs instead of into her pocket! You’ve probably spent many hours becoming skilled and developing specialized knowledge in your own profession. An outsider might look at what you do for a living and think it’s easy. But you know it’s not. The same goes for working as a real estate agent.
